Possible Problem:
There does not seem to be a simple way for black to avoid checkmate on f7 and then on e8.
Solution:
An alternative variant is that pieces can only move on the same color square as they started on.

Tried playing a game against myself in variant #2:
Second version is very interesting, I must say. Anyone want to give it a go (in live, unrated)?
If you weren't nice enough to help me with my chess stoopidity, I would file a formal legal binding big-money executive-and-legislative-order <insert name of presidential candidate here but I can't say it> complaint against you and have you muted for a month.
This is so racist. I love it!
Queens = Bishops with Rook checking power
Bishops = What do you expect?
Interesting idea, but it has a couple of flaws that should be resolved, e.g. can black move its b8 knight and can white move its b1 knight? Additionally, the other knight can then only move once. Also, moving pawns more than once seems to be against the rules?
Maybe you should limit this great idea just to specific pieces i.e. king, queen and the rooks.
Knights Lives Matter! Knights Lives Matters!
eh,..........pawns too? awww, forget them!
Knights Lives Matter! Knights Lives Matter!
In the first game, 5.Qe8 is not check. Black can continue 5...Qf2+ 6.Kf1 Qxg1.
that makes no sense

check your pawn privilege!

given the rule for game 1 is that pieces have to stay on their own colour after their first move, the black king is therefore under no real threat from the white queen.
How about a variant where you set up normally but after that sweep the board clean and get the f*** off. The world has seen enough people who try to come up with some new form of playing chess but still not play chess. Trying to figure out another unplayable form of the game doesn't benefit anyone.

But if the white pieces were not allowed to give checks on the black squares (due to not being allowed to move there) and if the black pieces were not allowed to give checks on the white squares, it is quite easy to proof that the game is a simple draw:
White cannot force a win if Black simply plays 1. ... e5, 2. ... Bd6 3. ... Ke7 4. ... Kf8 and then just Ke7-f8-e7-f8 and so on, because the white pieces cannot attack those squares. Analogously, black can't force a win (1. e4 ... 2. Bd3 3. Ke2 and then just Ke2-f1-e2-f1 and so on). Therefore draw.
Idea: New Chess Variant - Racist Chess.
Can be played with regular board and regular pieces. Rules are the same for regular chess EXCEPT FOR:
White's pieces can only move on light squares and black pieces can only move on dark squares.
If we take black's king on e8 as an example, it starts on a light square, but that is fine - after the beginning of the game, it can only go to dark squares.
